The Rise of the Machines: Automation, Horizontal Innovation, and Income Inequality (2014, positive): “Goldin and Katz (2008) show that incorporating changes in the supply of skills into a model of skill-biased technical change captures well the evolution of the skill premium throughout the 20 century.”
Improving College Access in the United States: Barriers and Policy Responses (2015, positive): “…16 to 57 percent, but improvements have slowed and this figure has grown more modestly since then to 63 percent in 2012 (Baum, Ma, & Payea, 2013).2 This slowdown is particularly puzzling given that the wage premium for a bachelor’s degree is near a historically high level (Goldin & Katz, 2008).”
The Rate of Return to the High/Scope Perry Preschool Program (2010, positive): “Persons did not need high school diplomas to get good entry-level jobs in manufacturing (see Goldin and Katz, 2008).”
Do Male-Female Wage Differentials Reflect Differences in the Return to Skill? Cross-City Evidence from 1980-2000 (2014, positive): “Another view is that PCs are the latest example of ongoing improvements in the quality of capital that favor skilled workers that perhaps go back as much as a century (Goldin and Katz, 2008).”
Who Needs a Fracking Education? The Educational Response to Low-Skill-Biased Technological Change (2020, positive): “…demand for skill have consistently outstripped increases in its relative supply, suggesting that the elasticity of educational attainment with respect to the skill premium may now be low and contributing to rising wage inequality (Katz and Murphy 1992; Goldin and Katz 2008).”
The Schooling Decision: Family Preferences, Intergenerational Conflict, and Moral Hazard in the Brazilian Favelas (2012, background): “In the program, at the time 1 For the impact of schooling on income, see Angrist and Krueger (1991), Card (1995, 2001), and the surveys by Card (1999), Krueger and Lindahl (2001), and Goldin and Katz (2008), as well as Aghion and Howitt (2009) on the macroeconomics side.”
Robots, reshoring, and the lot of low-skilled workers (2018, positive): “…development since the 1970s: i) a sustained rise in per capita GDP (Jones, 2015), ii) a strong increase in the college wage premium (Acemoglu 2002; Goldin and Katz, 2008), iii) stagnating and even falling incomes of less-well educated 1See the transcript of the election campaign stop in Monessen,…”
Firms and Labor Market Inequality: Evidence and Some Theory (2018, neutral): “The pervasive in uence of this perspective is evident in major reviews of the wage inequality literature (Katz and Autor, 1999; Goldin and Katz, 2009; Acemoglu and Autor, 2011), which focus almost exclusively on the role of market-level skill prices in driving inequality trends.”
